thats what I don't get about these NBA players (especially young players)...you have all this time to work on your game but when you get under the bright lights...you fold. Maybe that's it, guys can show up in practice but not actual games.

Great win but they didn't have Harden at the end so we need to be realistic. The only way we win is if we play lights out in the playoffs with good team chemistry. Maybe this is a start... we can only hope so.

"The way Steve is as a teammate, the way he sets the tone, the way the team kind of takes on his persona. As a coach, that's the best thing in the world. It's easy to coach. He's taking care of the chemistry. You just coach."

So the recipe isKeep it close....let Kobe FinishBrown goes with the hot hand instead of stats ing his way through

and he rightfully should. It would have been stupid if M.Brown took out Jhill and put in Bynum @ 2ndOT timeout. I would support him if he puts in hot hand vs sat leader, any day (unless ofcourse, if its Kobe that he sits at end of games).
